Best Troops
In order to get not only his skill benefits but also much of the talent build, you really need to run Henry with a full Archers march.
Best Commander Pairing for Henry
Gilgamesh along Henry is a natural pairing as their mechanics are very similar but really sticks out is that both reduce normal attack damage taken and you can reduce that by so much that they will become so incredibly sustain (See full build here).
Nebuchadnezzar pairs really well with Henry as primary commander as they have similar mechanics that make them impossible to be swarmed. Henry can deal direct damage when attacked and Nebu adds a ton of anti-swarm technology as well and deals counterattack damage and revenge skill damage. With that pairing nobody out there will dare to swarm you (See full build here).
Zhuge Liang can make a good primary commander with Henry as the secondary commander. This is a rock-solid combination but the reason I wouldn’t recommend that out off the bat to everyone is that there are better options how you can use your Zhuge Liang (See full build here).

Best Talent Tree Builds For Henry
Below you will find the talent tree builds for Henry that make sense when running as the primary commander in any march in Rise of Kingdoms. Please also refer to the description below each talent tree as I explain a general route on how you should spend your talents there + some additional background for each talent build that I very likely will appreciate.

This is the rally build that you should use with Henry. Rejuvenate and Loose Formation for more rage and reduced skill damage taken and then fill up the Archer Tree for some insane buffs on your archers. Mind again, use only full archer marches with Henry to get the full bonus applied.
Best Formation + Armaments
Formation and Armaments are supposed to work perfectly with your commanders kit or you will find yourself very quickly in a disadvantage on the battlefield – and with so many variations it can be tough to stay on top. Here is what the works best in today’s meta:
